Hi there
I'm new here and just wanted to say hello
As a family we have been coming to the Broads since the late 70s where we hired many boats including Brooms Navigators, Cherry Willow from Wiillow Craft and Compass Viscount from Compass Craft ( we were I think the second hirers of the Viscount) and if I'm correct, understand that Richardsons now own this boat.
For several reasons we didn't hire for some years ( I just recently realised that it was an all too long 26 years) although we did holiday in Norfolk many times over this time.
In April this year we returned bringing mum who is now 83 hiring Forth Bridge 1 from Bridge Craft in Acle and had an amazing time, within minutes of getting back on board the magic had returned and it felt like we'd never been away.
At the end of the week mum said she had enjoyed it so much she could stay another week. On our return home we checked the brochures and websites and booked straight away for next April on Silver Elegance from Silverline Marine in Brundall.
After Watching Robin's excellent budget boat review and other videos we decided that next April was too long to wait and have booked Magic Gem (because the layout suits our needs) from Richardsons for September.
I think the bug has well and truly bitten again, we are counting the days.
